Skills First is a set of reforms for the training and TAFE sector. The reforms ensure that Victoria's training and TAFE system delivers high quality training that leads learners to real jobs. Skills First is made up of: (1) high-quality training that students and industry can trust, aligned to industry and workforce needs; (2) a real voice for industry in training; (3) funding for high needs learners who need additional support to engage with and succeed in education and training; and (4) access to targeted, relevant training for students in regional areas.

This report provides detailed information on the student and provider profiles of the Government-funded vocational education and training (VET) market in Victoria over the 2020 calendar year. VET was one of the sectors adversely impacted by the [Coronavirus Disease 2019] COVID-19 pandemic, where lockdowns and travel restrictions led to disruption in training activity. The first section of the report draws on data compiled by the National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER), showing trends between Victoria and other jurisdictions. The remainder of the report reflects data submitted to the Department by TAFE Network providers and by other government-contracted training providers. This compares performance for the 2018, 2019 and 2020 calendar years to illustrate changes and trends for the Victorian training system over time.

The review of quality assurance confirmed there is enough data to confirm that training quality in Victoria is variable and the problem is not small, and there is a widespread acknowledgement that quality must be lifted. The Victorian Government released the Review report on 29 June 2015, alongside a Government response, and has accepted all 19 of its recommendations. The Government will focus effort across five key areas: (1) an immediate targeted blitz on low quality providers; (2) prioritising quality in determining eligibility to deliver government funded training; (3) improving key factors in a student's training experience, such as the duration of training and the skills and abilities of trainers; (4) actively monitoring and managing the performance of contracted training providers; and (5) empowering students and employers to drive quality through informed choices and consumer protection. This document provides an overview of how the Government plans to implement the Review's recommendations. For reference, the recommendations are provided alongside the Government's planned actions.

Government funded training activity in Victoria bounced back in 2021 from a [Coronavirus Disease 2019] COVID-19 impacted 2020 even though restrictions were reintroduced to combat the Delta and Omicron strains. 2021 saw recovery across key sectors and cohorts, and many activity measures exceeded 2019 levels. This recovery was driven by training providers adapting to alternative delivery methods and the successful implementation of government initiatives such as the extension of Free TAFE. Total enrolments in government funded accredited training were 11 per cent higher in 2021 when compared with 2020, and 5 per cent more than in 2019 before the pandemic.

The government, the [Adult, Community and Further Education] ACFE Board and stakeholders have worked together to understand and support the next steps to enable the continued development of the Learn Local sector. This has led to identifying three key strategic directions for the future: (1) refocusing and refining the role of Learn Local - ensuring that the government better signals and supports its objectives for the Learn Local sector by setting clear priorities and improving governance arrangements; (2) promoting durable networks and co-location of services to improve pathways and sustainability - placing clients at the centre of service design and improving the sustainability of Learn Local organisations by reforming pre-accredited funding settings and the more effective and efficient use of Board-managed assets, programs and expertise; and (3) building the Learn Local sector's capability to deliver high-quality education services - enabling the sector to deliver better outcomes for learners by cutting red tape and harnessing broader vocational and educational system supports. This strategy will support the Learn Local sector to secure its critical role in education and training in Victoria. Most importantly, it will increase the sector's capacity to support those Victorians who face significant barriers to increasing their skills and entering and staying in the workforce.

An investigation into the desirability and feasibility of enabling TAFE institutes to seek approval to deliver degree qualifications: report

The purpose of this project was to investigate the desirability and feasibility of allowing TAFE institutes to seek approval to deliver vocational degrees and to examine the relative merits of other arrangements similar to vocational degrees, including associate degrees. The report has been developed following extensive consultations with interested parties. Currently TAFE institutes are excluded from delivering degree qualifications. This study was established to assist the Office of Training and Tertiary Education (OTTE) in developing its views on whether existing arrangements should be maintained or changed. This study impinges on the future role and direction of TAFE and so will need to be considered in the context of other current studies. The study addresses how the relationship between the qualifications delivered in each sector should be constructed. Victorian TAFE Institutes operate within the Australian Qualification Framework (AQF) which provides for three streams of awards: schools; vocational education and training (VET); and university. The Victorian Qualifications Authority is limited to approving qualifications in the schools and VET sectors only. Even though TAFE institutes cannot be accredited to deliver higher education awards, a number of arrangements have been entered into with universities which result in TAFE teachers delivering higher education on TAFE campuses. While no statistics are kept centrally on these numbers, the estimates provided during consultations suggest that there are between 500 and 1,000 students already enrolled in these degree courses.
Seven projects were undertaken in the process of developing the Ministerial Statement 'Knowledge and skills for the innovation economy' (indexed at TD/LMR 86.31). This report is part of project three: Desirability and feasibility of enabling TAFE institutes to seek approval to deliver degree qualifications. Reports from the other projects are indexed at TD/VIC 70.03, from TD/VIC 70.05 to TD/VIC 70.07, at TD/VIC 70.14 and from TD/TNC 70.285 to TD/TNC 70.287. Show less
